Calling all future entrepreneurs! 📣

Do you have a kid with a business idea? We’d love to help give them a chance to shine with a pop-up event at our space!

We recently hosted some young bakers raising money for horse camp, and it was amazing to watch these kids work hard, learn, and grow. 💛

If your child is interested in setting up a pop-up, reach out to get on our calendar!

A few things to keep in mind:
• Items cannot compete with products we already carry (no sandwiches or similar menu items)
• Please plan with the weather and waterfront wind in mind when setting up

We love supporting:
✨ Future entrepreneurs
✨ Teaching children about money and responsibility
✨ Building confidence and leadership skills
✨ Raising the next generation of leaders

Message us for details and available dates!
